What does the abbreviation "ErUM" stand for and who belongs to the ErUM-Communities?
In Germany, about 20,000 scientists are involved in the exploration of universe and matter (German: "Erforschung von Universum und Materie" = ErUM) with large-scale equipment.
German ErUM research is organized in 8 ErUM committees. These committees coordinate and represent the interests of the different research areas.
Mit dem Ziel, das volle Potenzial digitaler Lösungen in der Grundlagenforschung auszuschöpfen und auch in Zukunft exzellente Forschung zu gewährleisten, wurde der Aktionsplan ErUM-Data, gefördert vom BMFTR, veröffentlicht.
The ErUM Data Hub is the central networking and transfer office for the digital transformation in the exploration of universe and matter. In close coordination with the ErUM communities, the Hub implements the strategic measures of the ErUM Data Action Plan.
